In 1965, a team of climbers set out on one of the most dangerous missions ever attempted — to conquer the highest mountain on Earth.

Led by Lieutenant Commander M. S. Kohli and sponsored by the Indian Mountaineering Foundation, this historic Everest expedition battled brutal icefalls, deadly terrain, extreme altitude, and the unknown.

This rare film captures the real story behind the legendary climb — from the intense preparations and long approach march to the terrifying route-making across the Khumbu Icefall and the final summit assault by four determined teams.

What happened high above 29,000 feet?
How did they survive the mountain’s harshest challenges?
And what did it truly take to stand on top of the world in 1965?

Step into one of mountaineering’s greatest adventures ever recorded.

🏔️ Real footage. Real climbers. Real history.
